Queer that "labor leader" should denounce his brothers as anarchists just when they were engaged in most important battle for law and order; when they had succeeded in coralllng the capi- tallstlc crew and made them face the music together; when they had pol,ed 25,oOO votes against sys'eln which our brothers in the Knights of Labor are anxious to destroy in order that they may be free

Conforming the Bayard Treaty-Con-
 graduating the Social Democrats.
 At meeting of the Land and Labor Club of this city held in Central Labor Hall last Sunday, the following resolu- tutions were presented by committee appointed for that purpose at previous meeting:
 WHEREAS, A treaty which in its pro- visions is an outrage upon the repubh- can institutions of this country has been entered into with the Russian govern ment, through which any person who commits or intends to commit an act contrary to the barbarous laws or against the officers of the Russian goy- ernment and fees to this country may be delivered over to the Russian mur- derers, and
 WHEREAS, Thousands of noble men and women, have been consigned to the gallows or the hardships of Siberia by the Russian despotism, because they con tended for constitutional rights, and
 WHEREAS, The right of asylum is guaranteed by the American constitu- ton, and is an inalienable right, and its violation by our government in acting the part of hangman's helper, should arouse the righteous indignation of every American citizen, and should be opposed as an everlasting blemish upon the pages of our history.
 Resolred, That we call upon all labor organizations, and all citizens who have not lost the freeman's regard for pro- gress. humanity and liberty, to protest most energetically against this shameful treaty, and demand that it be immedi. ately abrogated
 Resotred, That the Land and Labor Club will use all honorable means, in cluding the elective franchise to strengthen the Labor Party, and place It's candidates in office, in order that the honor of this uation may be protected and preserved and the people rule.
 The resolutions were unanimously adopted. A member offered the follow ing, which was also received.
 Resofted, That we, the members of the Land and Labor Club of New Haven. congratulate the Social Democrats of London, England, on the stand they have taken in opposition to the proposed coercive measures of the British gov ernment against the people of robber. ridden lr, land; and we extend to the Irish people, in their grand, unflinching struggle for national self-government, our sympathy, with the hope that their efforts may be crowned with success.
 The lecture and literary committee re- ported that they had engaged the Rev. Dr. McGlynn to lecture on ''The Cross of New Crusade" in Carlrs Opera House on Friday evening, May 6.

A Letter From The Secretary of the
 State Federation of Labor.

This is the first leisure for writing 1 have had since convention. Our charter from the American Federation of Labor has arrived, and the body will be in working order May 1st. All unions in State who were not represented have been again invited, number of which will unite with us. At the meeting of the State Executive Council the bill providing for boards of arbitrations was condemned, and the bill for incorpora tion of trades unions, etc., was endorsed with changes. A committee was ap- pointed to watch the labor legislation, so that a proper report could be made to the body at its Fall session; the commit tee will fearlessly do their duty to show up some of our pretended friends of parties. For the quicker they adjourn the better it would be for the State, for the practical legislation they have done is very small, while the necessity for just legislation, is hourly increasing.
 The condition of our unions here is good. Several difficulties among the Bakers and Clerks have been settled for their benefit; the Tailors label is being agitated, and will be put in use in week or two. The Painters here have all gone to work: nine hours at $2 90 per day; only a few scabs remain to be driven out. The prospects are now good for the adop- tion of nine hours by the Carpenters on May lst. The Hod Carriers of Meriden have been organized under the Fedora tion, also branch of the recently organ ized Brotherhood of Painters and Decor ators. mail you copy of the proceed ings of late convention. As have been appointed organizer for the State, you would oblige me by stating through the WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE that 1 am ready to organize any class of men or women in both English or German-speaking unions.

over the nation is the serving of no- tce that the United Labor party has come to stay, and that workingmen have entered the arena of political actions and will no longer play sec- ond fiddle, but will make their own nominations and generously permit either or both the old parties to en- dorse.
 Workingmen must remember that an independent movement cannot be success-cannot hope for any really healthy growth or to secure the confidence of the public in it's genulneness, so long as the men who are active in its formation and in- tluentlal in It's counsels are known to have been hangers-on and disap. pointed otllce-seekers whom the old party managers did not think 1t worth their while to reward with a soft snap at the public crib. A movement in which the class men, toned take prominent part can never rise beyond the dignity of a slde-show-and the rank and file in this movement have no idea of being made slde-show of. The only way to prevent it, however, is to admit no one to membership in an inde- pendent club who has not first re- nounced all atfilation with either of the old party organizations. More over, no man who has acquired the reputation of being chronic office seeker should be admitted such will be certain to subordinate ques- tons of public policy to the expe- dlences of private profit; in short, they will sell out. - Broohlym Labor PresS.

ing freedom from constraint, the wage slaves could be goaded into twofold or threefold more efforts than chattel slaves could ever be forced to furnish. The latter could could not forget that the laws of nature in them rebelled against do- ing their full measure of possible performance. But wage slaves would forget 1t under the deceptive appear ance of freedom; they would still more refuse to listen to the warning voice of their innermost law, not to sacrifice health, longevity and con- fort for the profit of capitalists. They would, regardless of conse- quences, oyerwork themselves in the hope of saving in compara- uVely short time sufficient wealth to become themselves capitalists or "lndependent workmen."
 By thus stitling the inner voice lnborn even in sayages, which pre- vents the latter from furnishing in- voluntary work for proft-mongers, the wage-slaves were gradually ren- dered more helpless, and, unaware of their dignity as freemen, con strained themselves to do labor of the most uniform, mind killing, disgusting and brutalizing kind, and to become slaves of machines, parts of q machine, employed by the machine and stimulated to work as quick as the machine would com mand.

The demands upon the National Exec. utive Committee of the Socialistic Labor Party for periodical literature in the English language having considerably increased, the Musical Protective Union has projected grand concert to be held at Brommer's Union Park on May sth, half the proceeds of which will be GOV cred into the fund for the WoRKMENs ADVOCATE. In appreciation of this highly complimentary design on the part of the Musical Protective Union, it is to be expected that our comrades will exert themselves to make the affair success financially, as it certainly will be from musical standpoint.

John SWinton's ReceptiOn-American
 Socialists Protest.

Old Faneuil Hall was filled last Monday evening, with friends and admirers of John Swinton, who gave him an ovation and listened with marked attention tt what he had to say. Referring to the increasing knowledge of the working people, he made these characteristic remarks:
 "When l was boy, all we ever did was to read the ship news, to see if there had been any vessels arrived during the night. So say, my friends, Calban is reading. What is he reading? He is reading the news. He is reading the Police Gasette. Good He Is reading the daily Silly Billy. Good He is reading the daily DerNs Gum. Good Let him read. It don't much matter what he reads. It will put his brain in action. What will Callban do when his brain is fully fructi fled? Wait, Jay Gould, and you will see. Wait, old fogy, and you will know. But, mark you, Jay Gould x Co.,, when the clod hopper reads, the clod hopper is lost. When the gutter-snipes head becomes a knowledge box, the gutter slllpe Is iillpOSSlDie.
 series of resolutions were passed, in- cludlng one against the Bayard treaty.
 The American Socialist Section dis cussed the extradition treaty with Rus sia, and adopted the following resolutions:
 WHEREAS, As citizens of America, a country which suffered oppression under such despotic monarch as George ILL. . similar to that of the Russian nation, who are now oppressed under Alexander ILL, and as our redemption is due to the bravery and patriotism of the men who displayed their heroism in the battle for liberty men whose names we so much respect and adore, the same respect we render to the men and women who are struggling for the liberty of the Russian nation; and we believe that the only diff. ference between Russian revolutionist and an American citizen is that the latter possesses what the former is struggling for, therefore
 Resoited, That the new extradtion treaty expresses the negative feeling of the American people toward the Russian nation. We, the Socialists of Boston, do strongly protest against the infamous action of Secretary Bayard, as being against the constitution and feeling of the American people. We furthermore appeal to all lovers of liberty to raise their voices against such a hypocrltical government which with one hand erects statues to Liberty and with the other helps to suppress it; and, as Socialists, we point out to all workers the fallacy of capitalistic government, which, as well as despotic monarchy, is hostile to the interests of the people.

charge of the survey Of the Sioux Fails
Yankton extension of the Denver and
Duluth railroad were in Hurley Tues
day, having driven from Yankton on a
tour of inspection preparatory to COM
mencing active field work. They fol-
lowed closely to the line laid out by the
Hurley committee from Mryield to the
crossing of the Vermillion river, near
Mr.. Tomlinson's farm, and think the
route a very feasible one. Active
work will commence next Monday, and
with proper encouragement from the
property owners through whose lands
the survey will run, Hurley will soon
be a point on the line of the Denver
